3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Actually pretty tasty, strong burnt coffee flavours, and nicely bitter and dry on the finish.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled "Irish Stout".
Deep dark ruby, almost opaque, good creamy tan head, lace. Chocolaty, slightly roasted aroma, hints of tobacco. Cold coffee and tobacco also in the flavor. Toasted malts and bitterish finish. Slightly watery, but with 4.3% it is something to expect.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Black colored, big beige head. Strong chocolate and roastiness in aroma, sweetness comes up mildly with toffee. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is strongly roasted with mild chocolate, aftertaste lasts with dryness, chocolate and roastiness. Aroma is excellent!
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Moderate Irish stout. Poured the expected treacle colour with a frothy tan head. Some spice in a nose that’s dominated by licorice. Medium-bodied - a little light for an Irish-made stout. Malty sweetness and a short, abrupt bitter finish. Typical stout flavours - toasted malt, licorice and coffee. Let down by the lack of body and that sudden finish. (Bottle)
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottled. Deep black with a very deep tan head. Roast malt aroma. Flavor strong with roast coffee. Body a bit thin. An OK Irish stout.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottled. Black as coal. Licorice aroma. Very dry with some oatmeal flavour. Near thin with medium bitterness.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
I found this to be a soft Irish stout, not unpleasant, just gentle and a bit unremarkable.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Mild yet appetising chocolate/toffee/charcoal aroma. Same flavours that, likewise, have little strength, nonetheless enjoyable. Despite it’s mildness, retains a decent palate, certainly easy to drink this in copious quantities.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
nice creeping bitterness and cigar smoke but not enough guts to really lift your spirits on a wet winter’s night
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
The weakest stout I’ve had at 4.3%, but one of the better ones. Understated as you might expect, with not much bitterness, but good dry tarry charcoal going on. tastes like yer eating the rocks in between the sleepers on a railway. not that i would advise this to anyone. trains are big and dangerous and can sneak up on you when you’re not paying attention.
